[Steelmagnet]

Hi all

I did a quick search and I couldn't find this mentioned in any thread, so here's a very simple but brilliant technique for smooth pans:

Again, if it's been posted before then a thousand apologies, but it's such a simple trick that might help someone.

Old trick, buy worth reposting.. newcomers obviously don't know all the old tricks, so it's well worth posting this stuff up regularly.

impressive, never heard of that before.

I started a thread when this section became active asking for links to tutorials/hints like this but it died with no posts. This shows there's stuff out there, we just need to collect it in one place.

Great trick, really informative especially for a beginner who is looking to start video. Thanks again

I didn't know about it - but I do now... Thankyou

I saw this video a while back. Though it's a solid tip, I had to laugh at the example of panning without the band Did they get a hyper 5yr old to video that bit?
